How to Write a New Book for the Bible
By Bill Cain, Directed By Jonathan Farwell
Sep 23 & 24, 2012 – 7:30pm, Sep 29, 2012 – 2:30pm
This is not a play about the Christian Bible, although the author is a Jesuit Priest. It is unsentimental but thoroughly human and funny new play about his experience caring for his dying mother.
Shooting Star
By Steven Dietz, directed by Peggy Shaughness
Dec 2 & 3, 2012 – 7:30pm, Dec 8, 2012 – 2:30pm
Snowed in at an airport. Someone sees you. Someone from your past. Someone who has your secret, because they once had your heart. A touching, tender and bittersweet Valentine to middle age.
A Behanding in Spokane
By Martin McDonagh, Directed by Matthew G. Smith
Feb 17 & 18, 2013 – 7:30pm, Feb 23, 2013 – 2:30pm
In the Irish playwright’s first American-set play, his protagonist has lost his left hand twenty-five years ago and is still searching for it. Deliciously dark and hands-down hilarious!
Humble Boy
By Charlotte Jones, Directed by Ann Whiteman
Apr 14 & 15, 2013 – 7:30pm, Apr 20, 2013 – 2:30pm
A whimsical comedy set in an English country garden. All is not well in the Humble hive. A double romance, broken vows, bees and black holes combine to create a tantalizing gazpacho of a play!
Oleanna
By David Mamet, Directed by Peter Anthony
Jun 9 & 10, 2013 – 7:30pm, Jun 15, 2013 – 2:30pm
A male professor and his female student do a very dangerous intellectual and emotional dance. A compelling look at sexual harassment within the hallowed halls of academia, where sometimes it is impossible to tell where the truth lies.
